Religious Icons And Artifacts in Greece #2

April 7, 2013

tags: 6th Century, Artifacts, Byzantine, Church of One Hundred Gates, Greece, Icons, Paroikia, Paros, Religious

All of these photos were taken in the Byzantine Church of 100 Gates or Doors, in the town of Paroikia on the Island of Paros in Greece. It’s the only church on the island that isn’t white, and is the church that has been in continuous use for the longest time in Greece! It was constructed in the 6th Century and legend is that it has 99 doors or windows, and when the 100th one is found, Istanbul will return to the Greeks!
